Why is the EP called Butterfly Effect? The name choice reflects the environment and vibes present during his creation of the music. "Butterfly Effect" arose naturally as a name choice in a conversation about transformation through art and how small changes can affect larger systems, which is defined in Chaos Theory as the Butterfly Effect. His EP is a poetic interpretation of this scientific theory. 
DJ T-Rell created the EP in the midst of a ground-breaking event whose aim was to diversify and positively change old systems of education. This occurred in September 2021 at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, a four-day conference and workshop series about Chicago Footwork music and dance culture called Werk Related where DJ T-Rell lectured. The Five Colleges hosted nine guest master artists from Chicago and the larger Chicago Footwork community to share their expertise and personal history with Chicago Footwork. Through a series of dance and music workshops, panel discussions, and performances, students and community members learned about the roots and artistic practices of Chicago Footwork, creating bridges and conversations around race, culture, and diversity in higher education arts programs.

It was a vibe, to say the least. DJ T-Rell tapped into that vibe immediately and started creating music the very night he arrived in Massachusetts. While the other guest artists cooked dinner, conversed, and watched old footwork videos in the common space, DJ T-Rell created tracks in the next room. The assembly of artists marked a legendary moment for Chicago Footwork in its involvement with higher-education dance and music departments. DJ T-Rell found himself setting up his equipment on windowsills overlooking the campus or in the corner of active dance classrooms. He found inspiration from every moment, person, and location he encountered- channeling the experience into his art. 
Five of the seven tracks on this EP were created in Amherst at Werk Related, yet the entire EP carries the same transformative energy.
When we consider Chicago music and dance lineage in regards to their interconnectedness, we often discuss the rich history of that potent exchange within Chicago. However, Chicago Footwork is a living art form, constantly adapting to new peoples, locations, and modes of exchange. DJ T-Rell's "Butterfly Effect" exemplifies how adaptive Chicago Footwork music can be. Listeners can hear what DJ T-Rell experienced during his time teaching at the Five Colleges in Amherst.
